The Castle Hotel - JD Wetherspoon

This is not top-notch gourmet dining, so no 5 stars.

But it is good, solid, dependable dining, with a wide choice to suit the family, at good prices.

The food was very good, we ordered too much however, as it came in copious servings.

You ordered and paid at the bar, then they brought it out to you. I say "out" because we chose to eat out in the garden, which just yesterday won an award for its flowers.

The young staff both in the bar and outside when they delivered were excellent. Smiling, cheerful, helpful, and the food came fast.

They were very surprised when I told them to keep the £2.75 from my £30 payment. Don't people pay tips here? 😁

An enjoyable experience. Thank you.

Absolutely disgusting. The hygiene and standards in the place get lower each time I’ve been. Dirty tables not cleaned properly, sticky floors, the worst steak I’ve ever had and chips that were undercooked and hard in the middle. It was really quiet when we visited so no excuses. Younger staff trying their best, older staff and assume management leave a long to be desired. I’ll never return here. Lovely building but absolutely the worst spoons out of them all. Staff need hygiene training and the chefs need to go back to school. Don’t even bother visiting unless you enjoy filth and want food poisoning.

The food is never a let down at spoons you get a bargain price and a good portion size. However on my latest visit to this establishment the gentleman behind the bar messed up my pint, there was so much froth in the top of my glass you'd swear there was fairy liquid in the glass. Overall though can't knock the place it's got cheap staff and polite drinks.

Stayed for two nights. Comfortable spacious rooms that were spotless. Staff in the pub were friendly and service was good. Lots of comfortable seating. Hotel in the centre of town so very convenient and the surrounding area is stunnnning.

Great breakfast! Bacon actually cooked properly. Only slight downside was the staff were a bit pushy cleaning the plates, coming over to take stuff as soon as the last bite was in, and leaning right over us unexpectedly - which was a bit uncomfortable. It happened on two different days as well, and they weren't even busy. (I should say, I don't object to clearing plates - we even helped! - just that they would swoop on you as soon as the fork was down, without saying anything, and made me jump twice at just having a person suddenly leaning over the table within inches of my face!)

Listen in my friends, listen in,
Stayed in this establishment for 2 nights last week, very reasonable for the room price, room was large clean, bed was comfortable, bathroom was clean, the food was hot and nice(best weatherspoons food so far).
Get involved my friends, get involved.
You can even park your car for FREE in the Ruthin hotel overflow car park (just don't tell them I told you🤭)

We only had food with friends that were staying in the hotel, but couldn't find fault. The staff were helpful and the food was good and very reasonably priced. Our friends said the room was large and very comfortable.

One of the most amazing Wetherspoons in UK in the most central and noblesse buildings in charming town Ruthin. Staff is polite, quick and friendly. Food is expected with fast food (no)quality, but who cares. I really enjoyed my stay here
